What Features Does the New iPhone 5 Have? LTE, Larger Screen, iOS 6 and More

At a press conference this morning in San Francisco, Apple introduced the iPhone 5.

The latest version of the best-selling smartphone has been highly anticipated ever since the somewhat disappointing release of the previous iteration, the iPhone 4s.

The iPhone 5 will be the thinnest smartphone on the market. Made entirely of glass and aluminum, the phone was also designed by Apple to fit right into your hand, according to Apple CEO Tim Cook, who led the product demonstration.

Other features include:

a new, larger 4-inch display

all software has been updated

screen is bigger—taller but not wider (it now has five rows of apps per page)

all apps updated to fit the screen; they’ll be centered until resized by the developer

faster wireless

the touch has been integrated with display with … drumroll, please … LTE

better speakers and microphones

1080p HD video

the 8-megapixel camera now has a panorama feature built in

wide-band audio makes voices sound much more natural

a new A6 chip

longer battery life

a new connector and dock

a new, native maps app; i.e., no more Google Maps

new mail features include VIPs

passbook, which allows you to put passes, tickets and coupons on one app, with push notifications—basically, it’s a digital wallet
